North Korea to send back remains of 55 American soldiers killed during Korean War: report
- 6 years ago
North Korea has agreed to return to the United States,... the remains of 55 American troops who were killed during the Korean War-- a result of Monday's working-level talks between the two sides.
The Stars and Stripes newspaper reported on Tuesday, citing a U.S. official,... that the remains will be flown out of the North, either to Osan Air Base in South Korea or Hawaii.
And it's likely to happen on July 27th,... the 65th anniversary of the Korean War Armistice.
But the official added the date and the number of remains could change,... as North Korea and the U.S. are expecting another meeting very soon.
And contrary to speculation,... the meeting did not cover other issues, such as formally ending the war.
